ARE WE THERE YET...?

Next week my family and I are going away for a weeks holiday to Cooooold Sydney. We are going away with my sister and her husband and her 2 georgouse kids.
Im so excited. I cant believe how quick it has come around. It seems like only yesterday we were 'thinking' about going and here we are preparing to go.
Right now its the smack bang middle of winter and Im preparing for warmth. We will be alot closer to the snow and it gets pretty chilly this time of year down there.
We decided to fly down. We were originaly going to drive and have a bit of a road trip however after much discusison wedecided it would probably be easier to fly...Plus, the last time my kids went on a big plane Miss Mimi was 15 months old and Mr.T was just a jelly bean in my tummy :0)
So we thought it would be fun to fly.
Going with the cousins and aunty and uncle add to the excitment too.
We live on the QLD/NSW border so to drive it is approx. an 8 hour trip. Once we would have done it in one big hit but now with kids we kinda break it up a little. So it would be a 2 day trip.
The kids have been on and on and on about "when are we going???" Mr T, being the cute lil' 5 year old he is, thought when I said 2 WEEKS it meant 2 SLEEPS...Um....No! The poor little guy has been so patient and trying so hard to understand just exactly when it is we are leaving. It think he's startingto get it LOL.

We will be staying in Cronulla, such a beautiful place. Right on the beach. My sister and her husband lived there before the rug rats arrived. We also have beutiful friend there that we will be spending some time with...OOOOH, Im so excited!!! Im not sure who is more excited, me or the kids LOL.

The Story of "OUR NEST"...

If this is your first time here WELCOME. If you've been here before WELCOME BACK!

Im a 33 year old mamma of 2 little georgouse kids...my daughter Miss Mimi who is 9, and my son Little T, who is 7 (and I still cant believe their that big already).

I have a wonderful, loving, supportive husband who I consider my soul mate and my rock. We married in November '98. I love my family and they make me sooo happy. I want to give back to them what they give to me ♥.

We live in a cosy, humble little home on the Gold coast, Australia. "Our nest" That we are slowly making our own.

I find there is so much stress and sadness in the world in which we live.

I also find there is also so much beauty and love...If we choose to look at it.

My Blog is dedicated to my beautiful family and the simple things that bring 'me' joy and make me feel fabulouse.

Its a reminder to me that life can be good, and hopefully I can pass that on to you.

I love the beach, ocean, sand and sea. My husband is a surfer and I think it is a fantasic sport. I Love that he loves it.

I like to get back to basic with my food. I like to eat fresh, natural unprocessed food but I also believe in enjoying what you cook and enjoy what you eat and treating yourself once in a while...after all its all about balance.

Somtimes life can get a little crazy...but I wouldnt have it any other way.

Life isnt perfect, but it is good.

Thankyou for checking out my blog. I would love all who visit to continue to follow and pleeeaaase comment as i feel that that is the 'cherry on the top' after all my blogging.So please enjoy....
